In this activity, learners make "totally tubular" forms of carbon. Learners use chicken wire to build macro models of carbon nanotubes.

In this activity, learners explore how water behaves differently when it comes in contact with "nano sand" and regular sand.

In this activity, learners use chemistry to “self-assemble” gummy shapes. Learners discover that self-assembly is a process by which molecules and cells form themselves into functional structures.

In this activity, learners discover how a super-absorbing material can be used to move a straw.

In this activity, learners play with surprising sand that doesn’t get wet! Learners explore how water behaves differently when it comes in contact with "magic sand" and regular sand.

In this activity, learners assemble large cubes to make nano-related images. Learners discover how different objects are related to nanoscience and nanotechnology.

This activity introduces learners to the structure and properties of carbon nanotubes.

In this activity, learners create a necklace of wheat germ DNA. Learners add alcohol to wheat germ so that the DNA clumps together.

This lesson focuses on graphene and its electrical properties and applications.

In this activity, learners explore how engineers have improved roofing designs and materials in order to protect the contents of buildings.
